Kowa Jumelles Genesis PROMINAR XD noires 10x33

Good Points: The Binos are small and light but the quality of build and handling are fantastic. There are no others of this size and price range to match Improvement Points: There is nothing to dislike

Good Points: Have been a fan of Kowa Genesis for some time and took the opportunity to bag the 10x33's at a great price for use on the coast and other open places where the extra pull of 10's will be handy. The Genesis 33's are a really excellent binocular in every way. My other bin's are Leica UVidHD's and the Genesis 33's give very little to them both in terms of image quality and build integrity. They are getting more scarce now but if you haven't looked though a Genesis 33 yet, then compare them to the Alpha's. You may be surprised. Improvement Points: I can't justify buying the 8's!!

Good Points: Simply stunning clarity in a compact, erogonomic package Improvement Points: nothing

Good Points: Very clear view, excellent for identifying small birds and other creatures, flowers etc. Also very good close up for insects. Very light weight for the power they offer. Great build quality, should last for years Improvement Points: Hard to criticise; they are 10x33 which does mean you need to hold them a tad firmer, than bins with bigger glass, but thats why they are small and light, so fully expected.

Good Points: Excellent build quality and performance
